Dorsey is the second man accused of supplying the heroin that led to Ellman’s death. A 49-year-old Lomira man, Jeffrey Abitz, was also charged on June 25 with being party to the crime of first-degree reckless homicide for his alleged role in driving Ellman to Milwaukee to purchase drugs from Dorsey, according to the criminal complaint.

Abitz told police he only knew Ellman three weeks prior to his death. He is scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 8 for a preliminary hearing.

Dorsey remains in custody in the Fond du Lac County Jail. He admitted to police that he arranged the heroin transaction with another drug source he called “Lowboy” and also sold Ellman the prescription drug percocet, the complaint stated.

Ellman was found dead in a friend’s mother’s Superior Street home on July 3, 2012. The woman told police that Ellman told her he was trying to kick his habit.
